"My great granddad was a farmer in Mason City, Iowa and I am proud about my own heartland connections. But let's get real: that was in the 19th century and today, with less than a couple percent of Americans still working the land, it's not struggling farm families but huge agribusiness firms that till the land and rake in the profits."
